Explanation

Tsunami The term of tsunami comes from the Japanese which means harbour ("tsu") and wave ("nami"). A tsunami is a series of waves generated when water in a lake or a sea is rapidl displaced on a massive scale. A tsunami can be generated when the sea floor abruptl deforms and verticall displaces the overl ing water. !uch large vertical movements of the earth"s crustcan occur at plate boundaries. !ubduction of earth#uakes are particularl effective in generating tsunami$ and occur where denser oceanic plates slip under continental plates. As the displaced water mass moves under the influence of gravit to regain its e#uilibrium$ it radiates across the ocean like ripples on a pond. Tsunami alwa s bring great damage. %ost of the damage is caused b the huge mass of water behind the initial wave front$ as the height of the sea keeps rising fast and floods powerfull into the coastal area.

A further point they make is that a lot of homeworks are pointless and does not help the children learn at all. However, there are also strong arguments against this point of view. 8arents and teachers argue that it is important to find out whether children can work on their own without the support from the teacher. They say that the evening is a good time for children to sit down and think about what they have learned in school. %urthermore they claim that the school day is too short to get anything done. $t makes sense to send home tasks like independent reading or further writing task which do not need the teacher support. $ think, on balance, that some homework is good idea but that should only given at the weekend when children have more time.
